Tura, June 12: The A•chik Holistic Awakening Movement (AHAM) has lodged a formal complaint with the Deputy Commissioner of North Garo Hills regarding the prolonged delay in the road construction project at Khaldang Rongsrek in the Resubelpara suburban area.
According to the organization, the ongoing construction work on the stretch from Khaldang Babupara to Khaldang Songma has been abandoned for several months, leading to significant hardships for residents.
Both the inhabitants of Khaldang Songma and Khaldang Rongsrek are currently facing severe difficulties due to the deplorable condition of the road, particularly exacerbated during the rainy season. The road’s poor condition has rendered it virtually impassable for vehicles, leaving villagers without proper transportation options. In cases of medical emergencies, sick individuals are compelled to endure long journeys on foot to reach healthcare facilities.
The road construction project initially commenced in 2021, but progress has been slow, and it remains incomplete to date. In light of the ongoing hardships faced by the affected communities, AHAM has urgently called upon the DC to address the matter promptly.
The organization emphasized the critical need for swift action, given the adverse impact on the daily lives and well-being of the villagers.
